using john walsh's digitizing board to help with horse build
https://youtu.be/Wp8zcwZRHKI drawing board digitizing parts
started by making a 8 in cardboard model,then a 24inch heavy cardboard model and then a full size 1/4 plywood profile
after all sorts of changes I have the horse on cart ready for shaping out of solid wood
24 pieces of 2x6's laminated and fitted all glue mostly as I will be using a 4.5 grinder with a carbide head and I don't want to hit a screw.
His name is penetangore and he is 12 hands high ,and in the spring he will be tied up to my front gate outside the shop
watching the traffic go by
But the work is just starting

I don't think you will find it in the loo
Seriously, I am surprised you didn't partly shape the slices on the CNC.
Would have saved a lot of wrist strain.
Anyway, he is going to look fantastic and weigh a ton?Every day is better than yesterday
Cheers
